"It cured me," or "It saved the life
of my child," are the expressions you
hear every day about Chamberlain's
Colic, Cholera, and Diorrboea remedy.
This is true the world over where this
valuable remedy has been introduced.
No other medicine in use for diarrhoea
or bowel complaints has received such
general approval. The secret of the
success of Chamberlain's Colic, Chol
era and Diarrhoea remedy Is that It
cures. Sold by all druggists.

Mr. Tilden testified first that he
was president of the National Packing
company, and later added the nam.?J
of five other Chicago corporations of
which he was president, besides being
the head of concerns in other cities
He was "confused" when asked t.y
Senator Kenyon to state of how mauy
corporations he was president "be

He "thought" he was director of

a long list of banks of which he was
a stockholder, but forgot until neaily

bank in East St. Louis. Either as
treasurer or in some other capacit;
he testified, he had the right to draw
checks on the bank accounts of "25 cr

CARELESS IN BOOKKEEPING.
The witness testified that he did not
keep accurate books of his personal
business, merely loose leaf memorax
da checks written instead of check
stubs. The witness said he was not
proud of his system, but that it "n

"We might be able to tell if we ail

tion never came up. I am paid a big
salary to run the business of a large
corporation and I know a great deal
less about my own affairs than aboot
those of the company."
BOOKS NOT REQCESTED.
The committee did not ask Mr. Til
den to produce his bank books for in

nothing whatever connected with the
election of Mr. Lorimer, and the cojv

possibly for all time" that it was

DKJVKEN TALKED OVER PHONE,
Springfield, 111., June 29. It has be
come known that Governor Deneen
when he goes on the stand in the Lori
mer inquiry, will admit that Edward
Hines or some one who said he was
Hines talked to him over the long dis
tance telephone, and will give the con
versation that took place. The gover
nor expects to go to Washington next
week in response to the summons serv
ed upon him. Because of the fact that
he is to testify the state executive re
fuses at this time to give out a state
ment.
There is no doubt that the lumber
merchant did talk to the governor and
no one here is attempting to deny It.
Friends of the governor ridicule the
testimony so far as It sets forth that
Hines, while talking to Deneen, mads
any reference to money that it was
intended to use in electing Lorimer to
the senate.
WILL. BE CLEARED VP.
"They have their wires crossed,'
said a friend of the governor, "and
this will all be cleared up when De-
neen's side is heard. Hines, it Is un
derstood, was endeavoring to get the
governor to help Lorimer out and was
telling him that President Taft, Aid-

understand it, was held on the day Lor

CONSTRUCTION OF REVERO HOSE
It is braided, moulded and seamless.
The seamless tube or lining of high grade rubber Is especially
compounded.
Over this we apply a special double braiding of tightly twist
ed cotton yarn. (The ordinary garden hose Is made of a ntrlp of
wrapped duck) next the cover which is composed of tough flexible
rubber to withstand wear and abuse.
The complete hose is then vulcanized in cur patent moulds
"UNDER VERY HIGH PRESSURE." Revero garden hosu Is the
only hose made by this process.
This pressure exerted from inside of hose forces the rubber and
fabric together before it is vulcanized and thus it becomes one
complete homogeneous body.
MANY FEATURES OF ADVANTAGE
It possesses greater strength and will withstand more pressure
than a hose almost double in weight.
It Is seamless throughout as regards both fabric and rubber.
Its construction prevents any faulty goods reaching the custo
mer. Being vulranized in moulds under pressure any defects are
readily detected during this operation.
It will outwear any other hose consequently is the cheapest to
buy in the long run.
It is made complete in our factory and thus each detail can
be carefully looked after. From the twisting of the yarn and
braiding of the fabric to the compounding of the rubber and the
final vulcanizing and testing, Revero Is la every sense of the word
the product of the Revero Rubber company.
